We really never know when the time will come for us to become a caregiver for a loved one.

The requirements are taxing and caregivers are often faced with making life sacrifices. Being a caregiver is HARD. Being fully responsible for your loved one is HARD. 

If your child has announced a desire to join the Peace Corps in Guatemala, it has probably weighed at least a little heavily on your mind. 

There are many risks, dangers, and unknowns that your child will face. As their parent, you are naturally worried for their health, safety, and overall well-being. It is easy to feel helpless, especially since they will be so far away and out of your reach.
